Garou is the brand of Tatsumi Corporation, an Awaji tile kiln in Minami Awaji, Hyogo Prefecture.
Tatsumi was the first onigawara manufacturer on Awaji Island, and in 1997 became a designated Hyogo Prefecture traditional crafts kiln.
Five demon makers make use of the fine-grained, high-quality clay deposited since ancient times to create the demon tiles.
There are only a small number of onigawara craftsmen in the whole of Japan who make onigawara one by one with painstaking attention to detail and skill.
Garou offers a range of items that make onigawara a familiar interior decoration item.
It can be displayed as an object to ward off misfortune or as a lucky charm.
We hope you will take one in your hand and feel the charm of the smoked silver onigawara.
